1: You're playing the wrong game. Sins is more of a real-time 4x game, NOT a twitch RTS ripping off 4x. I can say this with confidence because it's clear the developers have much more experience with turn-based games than RTSs if you look at their past works. Pure 4x games are notorious for taking several sessions of several hours each to complete. Sins is by far the fastest 4x game ever if I can finish a game in a few hours. You're just looking for the wrong game. 2: I pla

What's the default setup for the random maps? I'm trying to make a version of the 4 random maps included with Sins that is INSANELY huge, and I'd like to know what the setups for the current random maps are because just using "random - mix" is resulting in way too many colonizable. Also, why are there doubled entries on some of the lists? "Random - planet" appears twice for example.
Oh suck it up and deal with it you wuss. Sticks and stones. Besides, what's the point of winning if you're not allowed to feel superior?
Don't. And if you have to, anywhere BUT Gamespot and Fileplanet. [quote] Get "Zero Punctuation" to do a review!

That's what you get for being a strikewhore. Try using some other frigates once in a while. Flakcraft are not NEARLY as overpowered as assaultcraft (LRMs, Illums, Assails).
Do the tutorials, and just use common sense. You don't need a bachelor's degree in spaceship command to beat the AIs in this game, just work through your strategy logically. Basic life skills are enough to beat the pathetically easy AIs in Sins. Look at your choices, balance short-term (military) vs. long-term (economic) needs, read the ingame documentation on each choice, and make a decision. Experience is the only way you'll actually learn. Other people can train you, they
Stop asking stupid questions like "Should I get this game" on the game's forum (like we're an unbiased audience...) and read about the game and make up your own mind.
